No, there isn't. However, Geeklog 1.3.6 will have a user submission queue, so that new users will not get their password emailed to them until they are approved by an Admin.
If you want to disable the new user registration entirely, I'd suggest you replace the form in layout/YourTheme/users/registrationform.thtml with a text that explains how they could register (or why they can not register at all - you didn't state what exactly you had in mind).
bye, Dirk

Dirk,
I have actually done this. But if on the main screen, you
click login, without any credentials, you get taken to a
screen that says "did you forget your password?" And if
you click the link that takes you to the screen to enter
in your email address, you will see that form. Now,
without entering in an email address, click "Email
password", this will now take you on to a screen with 3
forms, one to send your password, another to try to login
and, yep you guessed it, a scren to create an account. Im
tyrin to stop people from creating accounts, as only the
admin (my work) will be specifying the accounts. Our users
have to be resellers of our products to have an account.
Do you understand what I'm trying to say? I have edited
the registrationform.thtml file so there is no form in
there. I believe the form in question is comming from
users.php, but if you try to comment anything out, it
still shows. If you remove the code, you get a parse
error. Can you help?
Regards,

Oh yeah, there's that hard-coded default form ...
You just need to take out the part that starts with
$retval .= COM_startBlock($LANG04[22])
up until (and including) the next
. COM_endBlock();
That should do it.

Dirk,
Hi, I removed that, and I can still see the form, and you
can still create a user. Have you done this before? If so,
can I have a copy of your users.php? My email is in my
profile.
Thank you
Carl Pickering
